Getto Kitty Stand Up and Be Counted / Hope for the Future (Black Vinyl) w/ Obi Analog LP
Product Description
Limited first pressing 7-inch black vinyl featuring a historic early recording by legendary jazz, soul, and rare groove innovator Weldon Irvine and his band offshoot Ghetto Kitty. Originally released in 1972 on Nina Simone’s private label Stroud Records and produced by her partner Andy Stroud, this single is now reissued for the first time ever in its original 7-inch format.
Experience a superb killer funk cut that bridges 1970s jazz and soul with the later club and rare groove scenes: thick brass section, mellow electric piano, nimble percussion, and a powerful call-and-response by male and female twin vocals. This recording traces Weldon Irvine’s early creative path around the time of his debut album “Liberated Brother” and the founding of his own label Nodlew Music.
